30. Use of this LP gas grill other than for the intended
use, or alteration of this LP gas grill in any way may not
be safe and will void any warranty.
31. Never attempt to repair the LP gas grill or cylinder
yourself. Contact the manufacturer for
information regarding repairs to your grill.
32. LP gas is not natural gas. The conversion or
attempted use of natural gas in an LP unit or LP gas in a
natural gas unit is dangerous and will void your warranty.
33. WARNING! Do not wear loose clothing (for
example: hanging shirt tails, clothing with frills,
etc.) around an LP gas grill while in use or hot.
34. Never use an LP cylinder if it shows signs of:
dents, gouges, bulges, fire damage, corrosion, leakage,
excessive rust or other forms of visual external
damage; it may be hazardous and should be checked by
a
Liquefied Petroleum supplier. Do not use an LP
cylinder with a damaged valve.
35. Even though your LP cylinder may appear to be
empty, gas may still be present and the cylinder should
be transported and stored accordingly.
36. Never store an LP gas cylinder indoors (empty or
filled). If storing the gas grill indoors, disconnect LP gas
cylinder and store it outdoors out of the reach of children.
37. Never leave an LP cylinder inside a vehicle which
may become overheated by the sun.
38. Never lean your body over the LP gas grill when
lighting it or while it is in use or hot.
39. Do not attempt to disconnect, move or alter any gas
fittings while your LP gas grill is in operation.
40. Your LP gas grill should be cleaned on a regular
basis. Refer to Care and Maintenance section in this
manual.
41. This LP gas grill is not designed to be used with
more than 50% of the cooking area as a solid plate
(griddle). Full coverage of plates will cause excessive
heat and could damage the grill.
42. Never douse the grill with water when its surfaces
are hot because it may cause grease to splatter or
the porcelain cooking grids and hood to break. Use bak-
ing soda to control a grease fire.
43. When not in use, the LP cylinder valve must be
turned to “Off” position.
44. Empty charcoal and wood chunk ashes after each use.
45. Set up grill in an open area away from buildings, dry
leaves, or brush. Be sure to avoid high traffic areas and
always barbecue in a well-ventilated area. Be aware of wind
blown sparks.
46. Never
use lighter fluids. Never use gasoline, kerosene, alcohol, or
other volatile fluids as a starter. They can explode.
47. Once
the charcoal briquettes are lit, do not touch to see if they are
hot.
48. Allow
coals to burn out completely and let the ashes cool for
48 hours before disposing of them.
49.
Dispose of cold ashes by wrapping them in heavy-duty alu-
minum foil and putting them in a non-combustible container.
Be sure there are no other combustible materials in or near
the container.
50. If you
must dispose of the ashes in less time than it takes for them
to completely cool, remove the ashes from the grill keeping
them in heavy duty foil and soak them completely with water
before disposing in a non- combustible container.
